Beginning of the End
Chapter 2
Dante and Lucia have made it to the large city that they once travelled through on the persute of Aurius. It was dark and quiet. Too quiet. "Do you think that the devil will try to surprise us?" Lucia said to Dante with a look of worry. "I do sense some evil here." Dante said. "He must be planning something. But I can't make it out." They continued walking when Dante knocked down Lucia just before a large demon swong at them. The demon was at least fifteen feet tall. It uses a large firey sword and has a very destinct devilish look on its face.
Dante told Lucia to stay down but she refused to watch Dante risk his life for her. "I'm not gonna sit back and watch you get hurt again. I'm fighting too." Lucia screamed at him. She then transformed into her demon form and started at the demon. Dante drew his trusty mystical handguns and started to blast away on the demon. The demon, that went by the name of Gilleal, just stood there and waited for his chance to strike. When Lucia finished her strike, Gilleal swong his large blade at her. He had just missed when Dante came up with his Avenger, sword, and struck Gilleal in the back. The demon fell as if he were no challenge.
Lucia returned to her normal form. She was shocked to see how powerful Dante had become. "How did you ever become so powerful?" She said while looking him dead in the eye. "I didn't pass through the gates of hell and leave a mear mortal." He cracked. "We must continue. There isn't much time before he releases more demons like him." They began runnning down the empty streets in search of a way to stop the demon overrun.
They came up to the tall tower that Aurius had open the gateway once before. Lucia then screamed and grabbed Dante by the arm. They both couldn't believe what they were seeing. Aurius was standing in front of the both of them. He wasn't exactly there but it was his spirit. "Do you think that you have what it takes. You couldn't even get rid of me. HAHAHAHA!" Aurius said with a large smile. "He will crush you like bugs under his feet." Dante grabbed his blade and the spirit disappeared.
"What was that? Was that really...Aurius?" Lucia said with a shocking expression. Dante took a look around the area. "It must have been. His spirit must still be alive in this world. He couldn't pass to hell." Lucia looked worried. "Can he come back to try and destroy us?" She said. "I don't think so." Dante said. "And if he could, I'll just give him his crown again." They both laughed for a moment.
"Lucia, its time to go." They both continue the search to reach the gates of hell.
END
What will unravell in the next chapter? And is Aurius right? If they couldn't even get rid of him, how can they take care of YOU KNOW WHO?
